"Winner, Blue Tyrant Academy!" Su Yuntao announced.
The Tyrant Empress team was pitted against Chi Huo Academy for the first round. This time, the fusion of academies didn't happen.
Shrek Academy went against Long Kui Academy winning the match and advancing.
The Tyrant Empress team was waiting in a room waiting for the next team drawing. Liu Erlong entered the room and walked over to Zhu Zhuqing and held her hand.
"The next round is against the Star Luo Imperial Academy." She said in a worried tone.
Everyone looked at Zhu Zhuqing who was lost in thought. She wasn't nervous but this was a fight that was more for her than the team. She felt someone grab her other hand and turned to see Tang Zhen.
"Zhuqing, we are with you. You don't have to worry so much. We've trained for this moment and it's finally time to get answers from your sister." He said reassuringly.
"Yeah Zhuqing, we are all here with you!" Xiao Wu exclaimed cheerily.
"Everyone...Mhm it's time." Zhuqing said.
On the arena field, a new development arose. Due to some issues within the Martial Soul Hall, the pope wouldn't be able to join for the viewing of this match. Tang Zhen was a little disappointed. He was looking forward to seeing the top beauty of the Douluo continent Bibi Dong. Liu Erlong caught this and squeezed his side giving him a death glare.
"Tang Zhen, I know from seeing the pope that she is a beauty, you wouldn't happen to be sad that you weren't able to see her would you?" She gritted out.
"O-of course not Erlong, I just wanted to see who the enemy is." He responded nervously.
As the Star Luo team entered the academy, Zhuqing started at Zhu Zhuyun while the other gave her a playful look confident of their victory.
"Oh! Zhuqing I didn't expect that ran away to the Heaven Dou Empire. Did you run to find my playboy of a brother? But that's odd, you're not on the same team as him, did you catch him with another woman and are rebelling?" Dai Weisi asked with some humor. The team laughed at his jab causing Dai Mubai in the stands to clench his fists.
"No Weisi, from the last time I met my little sister, that young man next to her is her new boy toy." Zhu Zhuyun said.
"Hmpf. Zhuqing, you have a duty to the Imperial family, you dare see another man?" Dai Weisi exclaimed coldly.
"Hoh...and what do we have to fear from the Star Luo Empire?" Tang Zhen said as he stepped forward.
"A filthy commoner should just roll over and not meddle in the affairs of nobles." Dai Weisi retorted.
"Weak trash have no talk here." Tang Zhen said.
"You!"
"Zhuqing, You've reached the top ten of the finals, you can end it here. Dad and mom miss you a lot but they can't go against the clan tribe's rules. Come back with me after the tournament." Zhu Zhuyun said sweetly.
"Zhu Zhuyun, don't be pretentious, if I didn't leave home, I might have been killed by you. Nor would I have found my future husband." Zhuqing said as she tugged Tang Zhen's arm.
"Participants, please get ready." Su Yuntao said.
Releasing their martial souls, Zhu Zhuyun was momentarily stunned.
"This girl, when she left with some boy, she was only level 11. In just a few years, she is the same strength as me. Could that boy be?" Zhu Zhuyun started sweating staring at Tang Zhen who hadn't released his martial soul yet. Looking at the others they all had 10,000 year rings shocking the rest of the competition.
"Get ready everyone." Zhu Zhuyun said seriously to her team.
"YOU DARE LOOK DOWN ON ME TRASH? RELEASE YOUR MARTIAL SOUL OR WILL YOU HIDE BEHIND THOSE WOMEN THE ENTIRE TIME!" Dai Weisi screamed in rage.
Smirking, the clouds started to get dark as he Tang Zhen lifted his arm up and a huge Thunder bolt came crashing down as a huge Thunder Dragon emerged floating behind him. Soon after, two purple and four black rings descended as a huge soul power hit the Star Luo team from the release of the martial soul.
"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon! Soul Emperor?!" The Star Luo team exclaimed in surprise.
Some random side character wiped his eyes and then slapped himself to make sure this wasn't a dream.
"All of them have 10,000 year soul rings isn't that leapfrog absorbing? That guy doesn't even have a 100 year rings!" he yelled.
While Ning Fengzhi stood watching proudly, the bishops of the Martial Soul Hall were in a panic. There was a 17 year old Soul Emperor. It was unprecedented.
"BEGIN!"
"Second soul skill. Nether Claws." Zhu Zhuyun charged forward.
"Third soul skill. Tempestuous Waters." The Auxiliary soul masters boosted Zhu Zhuyun's speed.
"Third soul skill. Nether Slash." Zhu Zhuqing charged forward to meet her.
"Jiubao Boost. Second, Speed!" Ning Rongrong boosted Zhu Zhuqing. They met locked in an attack but to Zhu Zhuyun's surprise, she was actually being pushed back.
"Trash, it was a nice show you put on tricking people into thinking you're a Soul Emperor. I don't know how you did it, but I'll teach you a lesson." Dai Weisi was so delusional he couldn't believe that a commoner was stronger than him. He charged forward.
Dai Weisi threw a punch and Tang Zhen dodged before giving him a shot to the liver causing him to stumble back in pain.
"Second soul skill. White Tiger Intense Light Wave." Dai Weisi launched a gold light at Tang Zhen.
"Third soul skill. Thunder Emperor's Armor." Tang Zhen activated his armor and took the attack without it even leaving a mark.
Seeing his attack didn't work, Dai Weisi used his self created soul skill.
"Glare Cutting Line." A thin line of gold light shot out from his mouth. Tang Zhen dodged it and rushed towards Dai Weisi before punching him multiple times and sending him flying into a wall with a kick.
Furious, Dai Weisi gets up activated his Third soul skill, White Tiger Earthquake causing the ground to quake before jumping and leaping down to activate the second part of the skill launching Tang Zhen into the air and trapping him in a ball of earth.
Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuyun getting desperate trapped Zhu Zhuqing in an illusion trying to show her that her parents really missed her. Knowing that this was an illusion due to training against Tang Zhen's Sharingan, she quickly broke through catching her arm and tossing her towards Dai Weisi.
Dai Weisi, smugly used his last ability to try and obliterate the ball dealing damage. Once the ball shattered, he thought that Tang Zhen would be seriously injured but what he was sent goosebumps down his spine.
As the dust cloud cleared, Tang Zhen was seen standing completely unharmed as he wiped some dirt from his shoulder nonchalantly. Seeing this Dai Weisi charged again.
"Fourth soul skill, White Tiger Obliterate Spirit."
"First soul skill, Three Thousand Thunder Movement." Tang Zhen disappeared trailed by Thunder dodging Dai Weisi's strike but appeared in front of him as he used Octane Blast to send Dai Weisi flying. Shortly after, Zhu Zhuyun landed beside him.
Struggling to get up, they both looked back and saw that it was just the two of them. The rest of the team was already out cold and the were surprised to see the rest of the Blue Tyrant Academy team stepping off to the side leaving Zhu Zhuqing and Tang Zhen.
Enraged at the humiliation, Dai Weisi had no choice, he used the Martial Soul Fusion with Zhu Zhuyun forming the White Tiger of the Netherworld.
This was their last gamble, they had taken too much damage.
"I REFUSE TO LOSE TO YOU!" Dai Weisi shouted. Zhu Zhuyun, seeing him slowly losing his composure couldn't help but feel dejected.
Tang Zhen walked up to Zhu Zhuqing and held her by the waist and took her hand.
"Zhuqing, are you ready to end this?" Tang Zhen staring at Zhu Zhuqing with a loving gaze.
"Mhm..Big brother Tang Zhen, I'm ready." She said resolutely.
As the purple tiger charged forward, Tang Zhen raised Zhuqing's hand together with his.
A Rasengan started to form in Zhuqing's hand but soon, she felt Tang Zhen's soul power flowing through making the Rasengan larger and larger. She suddenly remembered her time with him throughout the years, her time with the other girls, the good times she had with everyone and a warm feeling emerged.
They leaped into the air to meet the Tiger before they smashed the it into them.
"GIANT RASENGAN!" Zhuqing and Tang Zhen roared together.
The giant orb tore through the tiger launching to towards the ground causing a huge wave of dust to explode.
In the crater, Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi were there but only Zhu Zhuyun was still conscious.
Zhu Zhuqing walked up to her the moment of truth was here.
"Sister, did you really want to kill me? Why did you send assassins against me? Even Aunt Ling. Tell me." She said in a calm voice.
Zhu Zhuyun didn't respond.
"You sent someone to protect her didn't you? You ordered those people to kill Zhuqing but sent a powerful soul master to protect her at the last second." Tang Zhen stated.
"...Yes. I did." Zhu Zhuyun finally gave in.
"Why?" Zhuqing asked.
Zhu Zhuyun had tears forming in her eyes.
"Our family is bound to the Dai Imperial family. We were all promised to them from birth. Even I can do nothing. I am bound to Weisi. I...didn't want that for you. I didn't want to fight my beloved little sister to the death for something as worthless as the throne. If I could send you away, you could live a happy life somewhere far away from the Star Luo Empire. That is why I staged the attack so I could say that you died in it. Even if I have to be in a loveless marriage, I wanted to save you even at the cost of you hating me." Zhu Zhuyun started crying.
Zhu Zhuqing started crying as well. Her sister was willing to sacrifice herself so that she could be happy. Zhuqing looked at Tang Zhen and he smiled.
"Looks like I was right." Tang Zhen said. She nodded.
Zhu Zhuqing walked up to her crying sister and to Zhu Zhuyun's surprise, hugged her.
"I forgive you sister." Zhu Zhuqing said making Zhu Zhuyun hold onto her as she started crying harder.
The match ended with a repaired bond between sisters after so long.
The next day, the other teams gathered for the next match. It ended up being Shen Feng Academy vs the Martial Soul Hall Academy.
This time it was announced that the pope was arriving.
As Tang Zhen had an eager look on his face, it soon turned into shock and confusion.
The woman who walked up was indeed very beautiful. The problem was....it wasn't Bibi Dong.
"WHO THE FUCK IS THAT?" he exclaimed in his mind.
"Introducing Her Majesty, Hu Liena!" Su Yuntao announced.
"HU FUCKING WHA...??????" Tang Zhen's brain was failing to compute this change.
"Now introducing the the Martial Soul Hall Academy team led by the Golden Generation, Xie Yue, Yan, and Bibi Dong!"
.....Tang Zhen.exe has stopped working.
